I had the pleasure of photographing three beautiful women in bridal gowns at The McLean House in West Linn. I offered my services to help update the photography for this beautiful venue. Built in 1927 by Dr. Edward McLean it is owned today by the City of West Linn who, in partnership with the "Friends of the McLean House, " rent the facilities for weddings and special events. I sent out a need for women with gowns, not knowing what kind of response I would get. To my surprise and excitement the response was overwhelming! The weather was perfect and we even lucked out with a full moon for a little Halloween wedding feel at the end of the day.
I have to give a special thank you to Janice Morrow of Morrow's Flowers in West Linn who provided a beautiful bouquet for our brides to hold. I can highly recommend her services as a very elegant florist. Bren Minors, whose wedding I photographed on the 4th of July, did an amazing job as our hair and makeup artist. She drove up from her home in Albany for the day and created three very gorgeously distinct hair styles in a very short time. Thank you everyone, I couldn't have done this without you.

If you are planning an intimate wedding of 100 guests or less The McLean House is great. The photo opportunities are endless. As I wanted any image that I created to be able to be duplicated on a real wedding day I packed only the camera gear I would typically have at a wedding. These are a few of my favorites.
